I actually think rapport is so often neglected and underrated....and not just when it comes to sales. Another area that could use more emphasis on the "art of building rapport", as you put it, is networking. I received an email via LinkedIn from an MBA classmate (this person is FT, I'm PT) asking for me to help him get an internship. He made no acknowledgment that we have even had class together (we have), and just sort of put his ask out on the table.  I would have been much more open to helping him had he asked if we could get together for coffee to have a chat. Good stuff, and I'll be sure to pay more attention to the skills of the bartender from now on! What a great post..I couldn’t agree more.
